The Flipside, Another Way to Look at an Issue
Many entrepreneurs look to family and friends as the source of their initial financing. After all, the amount of money they need is not substantial in the greater scheme of things, they already know who you are, family members want to show they support your efforts, and you don’t have to get into sticky issues like Valuation, Use of Funds, and Exit Strategy. So, sounds pretty good eh?

I am constantly surprised when I see an Entrepreneur presenting to a group of investors and they make a real minor league mistake. The one I encountered recently was a company who passed out a Fact Sheet and in the Pro Forma Financial Projections indicated that the financials were available via an NDA.

This is one question that I have gotten quite a bit by entrepreneurs who are currently pitching or thinking about pitching their companies. There is a lot of rhetoric out there, so I decided to see if I could find some information on my own.

These are taken from the Blog Posts of very well known Venture Capitalists blogs mainly Brad Feld and Jason Mendelson of The Foundry. Of special note is "Ten Commandments for Entrepreneurs" by Allan Morgan of Mayfield. I combined a series of individual posts that Allan did a couple of years ago. The content is still relevant and a "must read" for any entrepreneur looking to raise funding from the Venture Capital community.
